Chapter 275 The Third Player

When the white smoke dissipated, the people present were finally able to clearly see the figure of the fourth person who suddenly appeared on the scene.

Wearing a dark blue kimono and a coat of the same color, the tall young man looked to be in his twenties, with a graceful and handsome appearance, but his exact age was hard to tell. He had slightly long purple-black hair, half of which fell in front of his shoulders and the other half scattered behind his head. He took off the glasses that he always wore, revealing his sharp eyebrows and eyes. His light gray peach eyes, which looked like an illusion of light blue under the light, were now completely calm.

It’s Kaoru Mochizuki, for sure.

Dazai Osamu couldn't help but close his eyes. When he opened them again, the figure of the person in front of him remained unchanged.

While the smoke bomb was dissipating, he took "Dazai Osamu" away from his original position, and distanced himself from Dazai Osamu and Shibuzawa Ryuhiko. At this time, he was standing next to "Dazai Osamu" with one hand on his shoulder. After hearing Dazai Osamu's voice, he nodded calmly at him: "Dazai."

There was two seconds of silence.

"Dazai Osamu" was simply unable to recover. After he realized that it was Mochizuki Kaoru's sudden appearance that saved him, a thousand questions popped up in his mind, such as how did he appear, when did he arrive, why did he suddenly appear here, why did he save him, isn't he Dazai Osamu's "good friend"...all kinds of questions came together, and for a moment he was a little hesitant and didn't know which one to ask first.

Dazai Osamu was speechless for a moment.

No one else said anything, but Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, who was watching the show, unexpectedly spoke first: "It seems that the two Dazais know this person who suddenly appeared... Mochizuki-kun?"

He looked at Mochizuki Kaoru with a look of surprise that was completely undisguised, his red eyes shining like gemstones: "How did you manage to walk in the "Ryuhiko's Room" without being attacked by your own supernatural power, and even be able to use your supernatural power?"

Shibuzawa Ryuhiko couldn't help but immerse himself in his own world and muttered: "Although in "Ryuhiko's Room", as long as you can break the separated supernatural powers, you can take back the supernatural powers and use them normally, but, no, your supernatural powers are not separated at all... and it is not a supernatural power like Dazai-kun's "No Longer Human" that can invalidate all supernatural powers. How did you do it?"

As the owner of this white mist, Shibozawa Ryuhiko could still feel that the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him had never been stripped of his superpowers. However, he was clearly a user with superpowers. Before he suddenly appeared, not only Dazai Osamu, but he also did not feel when another person's aura appeared here - he appeared suddenly, he must have used superpowers, and it was impossible for an ordinary person without superpowers to appear in front of them.

How did he manage to walk in the mist without any harm? Was it related to his ability? A space-related ability? But other space-related ability users had never experienced such a situation when facing his "Ryuhiko no Ma".

For a moment, curiosity made Shibuzawa Ryuhiko even ignore the two "Dazai Osamu" next to him.

Mochizuki Kaoru looked calm: "If there is no reason for separation, then of course we can't separate."

He didn't look at Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, but turned his head to look at Dazai Osamu: "Dazai-kun has already known this."

Dazai Osamu's face was quite pale at this moment, even two points paler than the "Dazai Osamu" next to Mochizuki Kaoru. In the diffuse white mist around him, it even looked so white that it was almost transparent.

"Dazai Osamu" slowly began to question himself, wondering whether he or Dazai Osamu was the injured one.

And what kind of nonsense are they talking about?

What does "inseparable" mean? The supernatural power cannot be separated...

Huh? No way…?

Dazai Osamu's expression suddenly became extremely strange.

Dazai Osamu stood where he was, and after hearing what Mochizuki Kaoru said, he nodded stiffly as if in tacit agreement, as quiet as a silent sculpture.

"Oh, Dazai-kun knows that too?"

Among the four people present, it seemed that only Shibuzawa Ryuhiko was the only one who had not reacted.

But then again, who among normal people would have thought that such a special situation would happen?

Even Haruto Nishimi couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling at Dazai Osamu's imagination, and couldn't help but applaud.

He turned his head away, not looking at Dazai Osamu anymore, afraid that if he looked at him any longer, his facial expression would break down - he nodded! He really nodded in acknowledgement! In other words, he was right in thinking that, right!! That was what he guessed, he didn't misunderstand it at all or have any cognitive bias!!

"I wonder if you know about 'supernatural life forms', Shibuzawa-kun?"

Suppressing all his emotions deep in his mind, Xi Haiqingdou still maintained a calm and composed look on his face, and said in a calm and steady tone: "Because now 'I' am not a human, but the superpower itself, a superpower life form. As a superpower itself, how can I separate it from others?"

Having said that, he simply said more in one breath: "Ten years ago, the original 'Mochizuki Kaoru' was actually dead, because he was hunted down and really died. However, at the moment of his death, because of the forced use of his supernatural power, a "special point" was created by coincidence. Although the "special point" dissipated after his death, it also caused me to accidentally have self-awareness. So, I "lived" in his place, and also inherited all his memories, all his identities, and all his "wishes." "

Xi Haiqing Dou controlled his tone.

He couldn't be too serious, because according to the character he had given to "Mochizuki Kaoru" Xin'an, although this matter was a secret to him, it was not a secret that needed to be deliberately concealed, or he had already integrated this "secret" into his life itself and had never deliberately concealed it. If his tone was serious, it would seem that this secret was very important and needed to be deliberately hidden, which was inconsistent with his character.

Nor can he be too frivolous, casual, or indifferent, as that would make him appear to be deliberately guilty and like he is lying.

Although this so-called "secret" is indeed made up by him, after all, how could he not know whether the vest "Mochizuki Kaoru" is a human? A 100% pure human, not at all related to supernatural life forms. He will not be separated from his own supernatural power in the mist, that is only because the supernatural power of "Mochizuki Kaoru" is essentially a controllable SSR card. As long as he controls it, it will not be separated by the effect of "Ryuhiko no Ma", and it has nothing to do with "supernatural life forms" and "supernatural nature".

But people, when they go out, their identities are given by themselves. As long as he is stable, who can know whether what he said is true or false? In short, he said he is a superpower life form, so he is a superpower life form. Otherwise, how to explain that he can walk safely in the white mist of Shibuzawa Ryuhiko without being separated from his superpowers? This wave, this wave Shibuzawa Ryuhiko is his best witness!

After calming himself down, he continued to talk nonsense without blinking: "This name, to be honest, doesn't completely belong to me. And my name, strictly speaking, is "The Man in the Mirror."

"Although I have never told you this before, I think you already know this, right?"

Dazai Osamu shook his head slowly like a real stone sculpture.

"I just have always had some guesses..."

He gave a somewhat weak smile: "But, I didn't expect this guess to be true."

The last stone in Xihai Qingdou's heart finally fell to the ground.

He knew it! He knew that in Dazai Osamu's mind, he was regarded as a "supernatural life form". He could even guess this. He is worthy of it! !

"Why belittle yourself?" He disagreed with Dazai Osamu's words and said calmly: "I think you should have expected this a long time ago."

After all, the identity of the "supernatural life form" he made up now was all verified based on his guess of Dazai Osamu's imagination. If Dazai Osamu had not long regarded his "hidden identity" as the "truth", he would not have suddenly thought of adding such a fashionable setting to the vest of "Mochizuki Kaoru".

Here I have to say that Dazai Osamu's imagination is really big. He can even think of the setting of "supernatural life form". The more Saikai Haruto thinks about it, the more he feels that this identity is quite perfect. It also perfectly explains why there is no such person as "Mochizuki Kaoru" in the other "possible worlds" that Dazai Osamu saw in the "book", and only this world has one more person like him.

After all, the fact that a "superpower life form" can have self-awareness and "survive" before the superpower person dies is a coincidence rather than an inevitable event. From an optimistic point of view, if "Mochizuki Kaoru" does not exist in other "possible worlds", it is very likely that the "Mochizuki Kaoru" in other worlds has already died, so naturally we can no longer see her.

Maybe even Dazai Osamu thought he was a supernatural being, because he couldn't see the existence of "Mochizuki Kaoru" in the "pages", so his smart little brain automatically completed this logic - it's perfect, everything is the choice of the Gate of Destiny! (crossed out)

Very good, this is very Dazai Osamu.

Everything has a track.

Xihai Qingdou thought.

From the emotions Dazai Osamu showed when he first met him a few years ago, to his lack of surprise and even determination in the relationship between him, Nakahara Chuuya, and Verlaine, to Verlaine's strange attitude and confusing questions when he met him, and Dazai Osamu's reaction when he tentatively mentioned Shibuzawa Ryuhiko before...

Those "abnormal" reactions almost put the answer in front of Xi Haiqing Dou's eyes.

——Dazai Osamu suspected that "Mochizuki Kaoru" was not a living human being, but the embodiment of the supernatural power of the long-dead "Mochizuki Kaoru".

These speculations have finally been answered with certainty.

And Xi Haiqing Dou only likes to bet on cards that are sure to win.

"Although I don't know how you guessed it, everyone has their own secrets. Dazai, you are always very smart, so it's not surprising that you guessed it. But I guessed wrong in one way. I have always remembered clearly that I am a supernatural being and not a human. From ten years ago to now, I have never forgotten it."

Said Xi Haiqing Dou.

But for some reason, Dazai Osamu's face seemed to be even paler, almost as pale as limestone.

As if he wanted to say something, or just wanted to breathe, he opened his mouth, then closed it again. Finally, as if he couldn't bear it any more, he lowered his eyelids and covered his eyes.

"…But the Mochizuki teacher I know has never changed." Dazai Osamu said.

"No matter who the name 'Mochizuki Kaoru' once belonged to, it has always been you, Mr. Mochizuki."

Xihai Qingdou was stunned for a moment and revealed a faint smile.

"……so it is."

The "Dazai Osamu" standing beside him had a deep look in his eyes, and suddenly spoke as if muttering to himself: "So, I didn't see you, Mr. Mochizuki, in the other world of the 'book' - because you in the other world didn't exist from the beginning, so there was no chance of meeting you at all."

How could he appear in the memory of "Dazai Osamu" in another world if they didn't even have their first encounter?

Therefore, among all the "possible worlds", there may be only one world in which the present-day "Mochizuki Kaoru" exists.

Unexpectedly, he would suddenly speak at this time. Xi Haiqing Dou looked at him in surprise and smiled casually: "Ah, maybe it's just like what you said, Dazai-kun?"

Although he didn't understand why he suddenly said all this, Xi Hai Qing Dou still gave the player a thumbs up in his heart - what a great cooperation and tacit understanding!

Well, now there are three witnesses to the fact that "Mochizuki Kaoru is a supernatural being", so it can come true.
